SPOKANE — KYRS Thin Air Community Radio, Central Library and Brick West Brewing are inviting the community to a high-energy night of Irish music as Floating Crowbar celebrates the release of its newest studio album, "The Smoker’s Cut," as part of the Get Loud in the Library live concert series.
The free, all-ages concert will be at 7 p.m. March 7 at the KYRS studios, at 906 W. Main Ave., Spokane. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
A beloved staple of the Inland Northwest's traditional music scene, Floating Crowbar brings its signature drive and joy to the stage for a special CD release performance. "The Smoker’s Cut" marks a bold new chapter for the band, an album that began as a joke over smoked fish in Ireland and evolved into Crowbar's sixth recording, putting groove and accompaniment front and center. Capturing a live-in-the-room energy while adding carefully layered textures, the record features jigs, reels and songs gathered from Irish sessions, honoring tradition while pushing forward with fresh momentum.
"The Smoker’s Cut is music made among friends, dedicated to memory, brotherhood and the joy of weaving melodies together,” the band said in a news release.
Get Loud in the Library is a live concert series produced in partnership with KYRS Thin Air Community Radio and Central Library, spotlighting outstanding regional artists and bringing free, accessible live music to the community.
